[EN] Artistic research is in mobility according to the context in which it is generated. Academia is still debating, what does generating
knowledge through creating art entail. Which in turn brings us to a series of inquiries that give form to a stance on this matter. The
enunciation of the exchange of knowledge, the collaboration between diverse medium, to name a few.
That is why, on this occasion, we present Práctica a project proposed by a curator with a specialty in Theatre, Beatrice Basso that was
developed between two border cities: San Diego and Tijuana.
This geopolitical approach, precisely constructs an interdisciplinary exchange platform with the participation of six members of
different media to inquire in each of their practices, in the words of Basso:
En 2017 I created Práctica, an artistic exchange for theatre producers, visual artists, contemporary dancers and poets. The purpose was to
share our practice and artistic research during three months in spaces located on both sides of the border. Every few weeks, between
August and November 2017, six artists would meet, enabling the intersection between urgent aspects of our work and the experience of
crossing the border and each ones. (Basso, 2018)
Addec to this, the procedure consisted in arranging a project paid by the hours dedicated to it. This facilitated the participant’s focus,
it gave seriousness to the work.
It seems relevant, to show the methodology and the findings in regards to the stipulated problematic border concept and the
derivations from it; from contemporary culture and the crossings that generate between Art and the life conditions experience of six
artists that reflect on this phenomenon in their affects and the recompilation of their perceptions.[-]
